Commemorated October 1st

Saint Remigius was born in 438 in northern Gaul.

After devoting himself for awhile to secular and sacred learning, he withdrew to a small house near Laon, to live in reclusion and prayer. But when a bishop was needed in Rheims, the clergy and people carried him off from his hermitage and made him their bishop. He was only twenty-two years old at the time.

The holy bishop soon became renowned throughout northern Gaul. He converted heretics, brought Arian heretics back to the Orthodox Faith, cared for the many who suffered at the hands of barbarian marauders.

Wherever he went, miracles attended him. He healed the sick and demonized and once, when a town was on fire, threw himself into the flames and quenched them. Birds would come to his table whenever he ate, and he would share his meal with them.

In 482 the young warrior Clovis became leader of the Frankish tribes in that region. Though he was a pagan, he knew and admired St Remigius, and was married to a Christian, St Clotilde (June 3).

Once, when his army faced defeat by the Alemanii, Clovis prayed to 'the God of Clotilde and Remigius' and won a great victory. This answer to his prayers convinced him of the truth of the Christian Faith, and he asked St Remigius to instruct him. Two years later he gathered all his chieftains in Rheims to attend his baptism. The baptism was accompanied by many miracles, seen by all in attendance. Two of the king's sisters and three thousand of his lords and soldiers were baptized at the ceremony. This event is considered the birth of France as a Christian nation.

In great old age, St Remigius went blind, but miraculously recovered his sight. He reposed in peace at the age of 105, immediately after serving the Divine Liturgy.

You will laugh and cry
Format: Kindle
Luckily, I stumbled into a link to this book on Transfeminine Review. One warning: take your eye makeup off before reading. You will laugh till you cry and that is not a good look with mascara. The plot resembles the movie American Fiction. Pearl is an aspiring trans woman writer. Her first novel has sunk without a trace so now she is going to try something more commercial: a gay male romance with James Bond action marketed to straight women who love that kind of thing. She's even adopting a pen name as Paul Sisters, s gay man. For a time it works. She has a publisher, Muzzle And Escutcheon is selling well and "Paul" has a fan following. Still, it's getting harder and harder to maintain her fake identity and she's having to make ever more compromises with her own identity and relationships. One other caution. Pearl does have to deal with casual transphobia. One sequence of her doing an online chat as Paul with transphobic fans and trying not to let it get to her I foundto be particularly triggering Good, funny, recommended

Brilliantly written
Format: Kindle
I read this in a single sitting, mesmerized. I cared about the protagonist even as she made increasingly bad and soul damaging decisions. I love love love her girlfriend and her roommate is also fun. One could argue that the humorous elements convey the dangers of being a trans woman in both publishing and life especially well. I also enjoyed the publishing scene aspects like in Yellowface. A great read. I’m now a fan!
